Wear limit on front discs ?

73CSL · 30-03-2014, 06:32 PM

Trying to work out if I need new discs or not.

If I've measured the disc accurately, I think they are 25mm thick as they currently stand. What's the recommended wear point for changing ?

Also one of my pads has worn to the metal ( appears the green wear indicator wire has been tucked up out of the way and not in use) and just started to mark the inner disc surface

Ignore the wear sensor bit, just read it's only on the drivers side and it's the passenger side that's down to metal

Just read 26.4mm is the limit on standard m3, so looks like new disc are needed
